I don't think a russian could grasp the football concept.Originally Posted by sfmonster
Highly over rated as a tough guy, if you are looking for a tough sob than pick up a russian. They are the toughest around right now, they didn't grow up in this cream puff country of ours. Basically what I am saying is all those guys are cream puff softies these days.

I know that Ray Lewis is no softie. He's stabbed two people and got away. It takes a real softie to kill two people in cold blood.
I wouldn't want to get hit by a 6'1" 250lbs murderer.

dannomight said:Jason Sehorn was a pussy and a poor example. Plus they players are basically owned by their agents and the nfl. What about the guys who play with sprained knees and ankles. Or running backs who play with bruised ribs and get slammed into multiple times during games. You have to be tough to play pro football hands down. I know of several people who arent tough at all be in the service.
4everhung said:how many of you have been on the sidelines during a bigtime NCAA game or any NFL game?
the speed at which these guys move is shocking
I was on the sidelines for a Penn State-West virgina match in the year PSU finished #3 in the nation(losing to FSU for a chance at the crown)
the speed all those guys were moving witnessed up front was quite opinion changing
when a play was run at my spot on the sidelines
it was "shit" here come a dozen padded monsters right at me
in no time

A "soft" linebacker is not going to do that.

do we forget that Clinton Portis blew his ass up when Urlacher tried to blow up his gap...? He laid on the ground for a good 5 minutes, and this was when Portis was abotu 200lbs playing for the Bronocs...
SOFT...
Lance Briggs is the best LB on the Bears...
dannomight said:And Urlacher leads linebeackers in sacks
sfmonster said:i would take Urlacher on my team any day. Btw do you think Fisher could pick him up next year, we need big time help.
diesel gli said:sorry bud, i can't see him going anywhere...
you guys should end up pretty well in the draft and can maybe get one in the early first round... although you need help in a few other spots as well...
dannomight said:Tennessee can aquire a quality LB in the draft. Just look at what Shawn Merriman did this year for the chargers. He'll be one of the best very quickly.
you're so wrongdannomight said:When your a killer its not what you have upstairs its what you don't have or lacking thereof. lol.
if you were "in the know" you would know that just competing in an NFL game is a trainwreck experience. ball carrying positions are punished beyond belief. most who had an NFL career of some length will pay for their involvement for the remainder of their livesdiesel gli said:i do realize that, but tackles does not equate = toughness...

"speed" and/or "quickness" is largely geneticsfmonster said:Todays games are crazy. I bet some high school games today move faster than old pro games. Todays athletes are just sick with talent. Food and training have come a long ways for sure.

you are correctdannomight said:Conditioning that was brought upon by someone who may have mental problem. Hence they are lacking something upstairs telling them that is wrong. Or especially in young people they become a product of their environment from all the negative influences/conditioning.
You are right though in your post.
4everhung said:"speed" and/or "quickness" is largely genetic
yes you can take a "base figure" and improve it with training/nutrition
but guys such as Bo Jackson or Deion Sanders are representations of genetic pinacles
they have it
at the NFL level with a 300 million pool to select from
you have it
nosfmonster said:Are you saying that the food and training of today has not made quicker more athletic people and that genetics is responsible for that?
